Hello!
I’m Cecilia Silvestre, a Staff-level Product Designer with 10+ years of experience turning complex enterprise challenges into intuitive, impactful solutions. I specialize in 0→1 product design, systems thinking, research-driven strategy, and partnering with PM and engineering to deliver outcomes that move both the business and the user forward. Currently at Alation.
Case Studies
Alation Data Quality
Architecting Alation's first native Data Quality platform from zero to one — defining the conceptual model, designing the end-to-end experience, and shipping a product that generated $2M+ ARR in six months. This case study covers how I shaped the system architecture (Standards, Monitors, and the maturity path between them), pushed back on an AI chatbot in favor of profiling-based recommendations, ran a structured beta program, and mentored a junior designer along the way.
